Steps:
- Remove the tops and bottoms of the eggplants. Cut them in half lengthwise to create eggplant boats.
- Place the eggplants in a big bowl with cold water and soak them for 30 minutes. You may place a plate on top to weigh them down. The soaking helps remove the bitter flavor from eggplants skin.
- Preheat oven to 230°C / 446°F.
- Drain the eggplants and place in a casserole dish. Score them with a knife creating deep criss-cross lines to help the eggplants bake well in the center. Take the 1 cup of olive oil and using a spoon, add spoonfuls of the oil on each eggplant.
- Season the eggplants with kosher salt and freshly ground pepper.
- Bake for 30 minutes until nicely roasted on top. Meanwhile, start preparing the tomato sauce.
- Heat the splash of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and the onion slices and cook until completely softened.
- Stir in the tomatoes and season with some kosher salt, ground pepper, and ground nutmeg. Cook for about 10-15 minutes stirring occasionally, until tomatoes start to drain and become mushy. Add the tomato paste and cook for 2 minutes more stirring occasionally.
- Using a fork press the eggplants a bit to make some space for the sauce to sit on. Add spoonfuls of the sauce on the eggplant boats. Reduce heat to 160°C / 320°F and slow-cook the eggplants for about 35 minutes. Then raise the temperature again to 200°C / 392°F and roast the eggplants for about 10-15 minutes more.
- Serve with chopped fresh parsley on top.
